Newly released JFK files on his 1963 assassination show how the Chicago Outfit helped train Cuban militiamen who opposed Fidel Castro.

Newly released JFK files show how Chicago mob bosses recruited young Cuban exiles in Chicago for secret training in Cook County of a covert resistance force that never made it to Havana.The public has been waiting for years to see the remaining records from the JFK assassination file.On Thursday the National Archives made public nearly 1,500 documents related to the federal investigation into the 1963 shooting of President John F. Kennedy.

The long-awaited and long-locked up documents were ordered released by the White House. In the files are expected details of Lee Harvey Oswald's connections to the Soviet Union and Cuba.As the I-Team has reported over the years, Outfit bosses recruited crooked lawmen to train Cuban rebels with the goal of protecting their homeland from Fidel Castro, who was about to douse the mob's lucrative gambling mecca in the tropics.

The JFK files cite Cain's involvement in recruiting young Cuban exiles in Chicago in what experts believe was a mob effort to keep control of Cuba and resulted in secret training in Cook County of a covert resistance force that never made it to Havana. What is not in the JFK fine print is a Chicago mob smoking gun. There is nothing to indicate the Outfit set up JFK's assassination.
